The year is 2095. About seven years after a massive nuclear war, humanity's struggle for survival has begun anew on Earth. While the world's superpowers were able to secure their own nations in underground bunkers, no country has been able to avoid the aftermath. It is estimated that nearly 70% of Earth's population has been wiped out. The Earth no longer appears the same from space; it's as if it's a different planet altogether. Many may have forgotten when humanity experienced summer, and this fact might be lost on many.

Now, there are no geographical boundaries left on Earth, no independent nations or sovereign states. A state called "Merijoa" has been established, where powerful individuals exert control, and everything is regulated by those in power. Rejecting the oppressive rule of Merijoa means facing subjugation, as the state's authority is upheld by an ungrateful figurehead without any real control. Consequently, the common people remain oppressed under the dominance of dictators, struggling against the chains of power-hungry rulers.

Even after years of conflict, humanity has not been freed from the grip of greed and the allure of power. Oppressed by the powerful, ordinary people find themselves ensnared in a web of subjugation under the guise of governance. Despite the presence of geographical barriers, if 70% of humanity is lost due to the lust for power, then who wouldn't want to hold the entire world in their grasp again? It is inherently human to lack ethics from within, and this might make global destruction inevitable. At that point, the impending thoughts of a destructive nihilist might undoubtedly emerge from their natural psyche, discarding themselves from their own ethical conscience. At that juncture, perhaps, humans may no longer recognize themselves as humans. Like a valueless leaf carried away by a gust of wind, the ruling authority might never be able to grant it the value it deserves.

Anyway , this is not my contemplation but its the contemplation of a boy living in the southeastern corner of the Earth, a child who wishes to see the Earth once again as a free entity. He may not be strong in build but he's intelligence and proficiency over things make him a wit character . His name is Kale who lives in the southern east corner of the earth and studies in school. The guy's a mystery and ................................
